runcorn2adelaide Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Hi, I'm UK based, and I've posted this on other forums, but I have an idea and I need help We have our VISA approved, and we are looking to come out to Adelaide early next year.I know where we will finally settle will be dependent upon where I finally end-up working, but its difficult to get a feel for all of the different regions from such a long-way away.I have started putting a website together, driven by a map of adelaide, listing all of the main suburbs (that I know of)Adelaide CBD, Aberfoyle Park, Belair, ,Brighton,Coromandel Valley,Craigmore,Christies Beach,Eden Hills,Elizabeth,Flagstaff,Golden Grove,Glenelg,Gulfview Heights,Hallet Cove,Happy Valley,Henley Beach,Mawson Lakes,Marion ,Mount Barker,McLaren Vale,Modbury,Morphett Vale,Noarlunga Downs,North Adelaide,Old Noarlunga,One Tree Hill,Paralowie, Port Adelaide,Prospect,Salisbury,Seacliff Park/Seacombe Heights,Seaford/Moana,Unley,WoodcroftFor each area, I want to list standard details under the following headings...Overview, Location, History/Community, Schools, Shopping, Local employment/industry, transport, I am then adding an area for people to upload their own photo's of the area in which they live and comments on the locality.....Obviously I don't have all of these details, and I am going to need some to collate all of this info together. If anyone wants to send me some photos' and some details of the areas in which they live it would be really useful. If anyone can think of anything else to add, let me know....Whilst this is for my own research, I'm sure others in my situation will find it useful too..... You can email info and pics to pics@parr-family.com Si--------------------Simon (41) & Karen (41) Caroline (14), Hannah (10) & Scott (10)Runcorn Based, but Adelaide Bound (we Hope)Skills Assmnt sent AusIE 11/04/05CC Rpt 25/04/05Positive Result -30/04/05 ASCO 2128-15 Electronic Eng TechnologistVISA Logd 30 Apr07 - FinallyIMMI Ack 26 June 07IMMI Reciept 13th JulyCO Assigned 08 Aug 07Meds/PC Req 08 Aug 07Meds/PC Sent 29 Aug 07Meds in Sydney 03 Sept 07VISA APPROVED 05 NOV 07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Die Krugers Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Hi Runcorn2adelaideI really like your idea, if it's under headings then you can find specific info easier. If you want a good start, there's a lot of info on the Adelaidebrits site, under FAQ, Suburbs (I'm sure you probably already know that, so it's just for incase).I would love to see some photos of the suburbs.Cheers!Tania Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
